Contract for
Copywriting Services
Your
acceptance of this agreement authorizes me to write copy for the
project described below, for the fee listed below.
The
copyright to all material created or modified for you here transfers to
you on receipt of your full and final payment. Until then it is owned
exclusively by E. Scott Janes.
After
the initial consultation, a deposit is required for your project to be
started. The deposit is 50%
of the total fee. If you cancel the job a kill fee must be charged to
cover hours worked. The kill fee is 50% of the deposit (25% of the
total fee). At my discretion, if you do need to cancel a project, some
or all of the fees paid may be applied to a subsequent project.
All
revisions assigned within 15 days of your receipt of the final draft
are free if those revisions
are not based on a fundamental change in the assignment.
If
no revisions are requested within 15 days of your receipt of the final
draft the project is considered finished, delivered, and completed to
your satisfaction.
Final
payment is due within 15 days of receipt of the invoice. Any unpaid
balance accrues at a rate of 2% per month.
Upon
receipt of final payment a 60-day pledge takes effect.
The 60-day pledge gives you up to two additional revisions at no charge.
You
agree that I have not expressed any promises, warranties or guarantees
in regard to this project other than I will develop, complete and
deliver it to the best of my ability.
You
also agree that you will indemnify and hold me completely harmless from
all costs, loses, claims, demands and liabilities arising from the use
of materials I create for you. You likewise agree to indemnify me from
any and all liabilities that may arise from any service, product or
promise of performance that you offer or sell.
To the extent
that
the work being performed for you relies upon, references or uses any
name, trademark, or other intellectual property belonging to any third
party, you warrant that you have obtained all necessary right, license
or interest in such intellectual property, and have obtained all
necessary consents in order that I may use that intellectual property.
You
agree to grant me the unlimited, non-exclusive right to use copies of
your project, at my discretion, for “sample”
display. If you request so, your company identification will not be
disclosed.
